I made my first trip to Currant Creek this weekend, and the fishing was good. I kicked up and down the west shore from the dam to the boat ramp about 30 yards out. The fishing was good using a white paddle bug tipped with a worm or a power maggot. The others that were fishing from the shore had success as long as the had a power maggot on the hook some where. In the two days that I was there I caught about 24 fish, but nothing to brag about. The biggest fish caught were pushing 16 inches. It sure beat flying a desk!
I had a few of the fish swallow my jig and there was no way of retrieving it and letting the fish go and live, so I ended up keeping a few. I heard, and want to confirm, that a hook will dissolve if you leave it in the fish and that the fish has a better chance for survival, is that true?
